“Their melodies were pop destructive and must be played to your younger brother” - Jack White, The White Stripes

“The Monks will always be a great band” - Colin Greenwood, Radiohead

“Monastic Madness – Hard Driving Garage Rock!” - Krist Novoselic, Nirvana

“This is a damned enjoyable slightly kinky 60’s garage record” - Iggy Pop

The Monks were five beat playing American GIs stationed in Germany who, after their discharge, decided to stay and continue their musical mission. Meeting up with a team of local managers, they transformed themselves and their sound into a holy racket like the world had never known. This five-person order literally birthed the above genres through a fuzz-drenched evolution of sound, bursting with social commentary and future primitive rhythms. We are ecstatic to present the Monks recorded legacy through this lavishly packaged and lovingly researched reissue of their landmark studio album Black Monk Time. Numerous period photographs (many unseen) and an extensive essay by Canadian music journalist Kevin Howes accompanies this release and tells the Monks story like it has never been told.
